NC police identify mother of dead bathroom baby

Hendersonville police are investigating the death of a baby whose body was found inside a grocery store bathroom Sunday evening.

Police say an employee found the newborn's body around 9:30 p.m. The newborn's body was wrapped in a blanket inside a trash can.

"The baby was wrapped into a blanket, it was a white blanket with Spanish writing, but also in its hand there was a gold in color cross," said Hendersonville Police Department Detective Bobbie Trooter. "It appeared to be a charm, a necklace and a small charm."

On Monday, Hendersonville police said they questioned a teenage girl who they believe left the dead body of her newborn baby in the women's bathroom at a Bi-Lo grocery store.

A surveillance video shows the girl and her boyfriend enter the store Sunday afternoon and walk toward the bathroom. She was carrying a bag into the bathroom with her.
